AF twice in 1 month?

IdigDirt

That hussy is back! I am pretty sure it has only been about 2 weeks since her last visit (I don't keep track) and my supply never recovered from the first visit, I really hope it comes back after this one. I am freaking out because LO won't take formula and I am only pumping half of what he eats at DC and I feel like he is still hungry after I BF him. I know freaking out is probably making it worse. Anyways back from my tangent, is it normal to get AF twice in a month? It never happened before LO.

I got two in January. First one lasted 5 days, second lasted a week. Never before have I had two in a month. These were my first PP AFs too.

I have 2 in one month fairly often- before and after LO. I started charting in Dec, and my cycles are only 26days long. So I start off the month with her and end it with her. Jealous? lol... Maybe your cycle has just shorten since LO, but its hard to tell if its your first few after baby (Ive had her since 3mo PP) Give it a few more cycles to smooth out, hopefully this is just a fluke

While I am not jealous of your twice a month visit from the red devil, I am jealous of your LO's eyes. Your new siggy is killing me. She is going to break a heart or 2 with those eyes.

How long has AF been back?  It is possible that your cycle is just regulating itself again.  I know the stress of low supply.  It sucks!

I has been sporadic since having LO so I guess it is probably just regulating. It would be really awesome if my supply could come back though.

I got it twice in January as well...once at the start of the month (I didn't take note of when either) and again last week (I'm still bleeding slightly).  My cycles were always about 34 days before pg so this was weird to me...and the second one was EXTREMELY heavy the first few days (and I had to have a pap test done. lovely.).  I was actually worried I was having m/c or something but I never took a hpt so who knows

I hear you on the supply stress...it sucks.  

Before these two periods I'd only had two others since A was born so I guess it's an adjustment period?

Haha, well thank you. Yes- daddy's going to have to keep an eye on her... I have a feeling he's always going to be cleaning his guns when the boys start coming around
